Syntax

bc = sw_nb(atomname)

Description

bc = sw_nb(atomname) returns the bound coherent neutron scattering length of a given nucleus in fm units. The function reads the stored data from the isotope.dat file.

Input Arguments

atomName
String, contains the name of the atom or isotope (e.g. '13C' stands for the carbon-13 isotope).

Output Arguments

bc
Value of the bound coherent neutron scattering length in units of fm.
